A few weeks later, A written report was received by me informing me about myself, based on what they found in my genes that were contained in that saliva I put in the mail. There was information about my ancestry, my hair and eye color, some of my health threats and predispositions, and even what percentage of me is directly associated with Neanderthals (more than I’d care to acknowledge, in all honesty).
As exciting and fun as that was, I didn’t really find much in the form of actionable information in that report. I already understood that my family was mostly Eastern European which I had formed a blue eye and runny earwax. As a fitness and motion professional, I was alert to the growing market in DNA tests when it comes to fitness. I often considered registering for services such as DNAFit and FoundMyFitness.
Would DNA screening lend any additional or helpful information? I had been skeptical until I heard Dr. Dan Reardon MB ChB, BSc, co-founder, and CEO of FitnessGenes, speaks at a health and fitness conference in Los Angeles this spring. After hearing his display, I had taken a closer consider his company and what it got to offer me as a person who is focused on being (and remaining) fit and healthy.

Whether the genetic data set actually limited due to the availability and cost of these kinds of tests? How Well Do Ancestry DNA Tests Actually Work?
Imagine that after weeks of traveling 6 MAF Tests a week, my average MAF Test score is 15.8 mph. EASILY go through the quarter-hour splits, I would find that the first 15 minutes I am riding at 16 mph, the next at 15.8 mph, and the 3rd at 15.6 mph, resulting in the observed overall average.
If I replace one of my MAF Test trips every week with an interval ride, I might find that my overall average rate increases to 16 mph. Every week with a long ride If I replace one of my MAF Test rides, my average MAF Test speed might also increase to 16 mph. Given the different techniques intervals and long rides increase my MAF Test scores, might I get a greater increase by adding both to my regimen even?
